As in previous editions of the game, the developers have drawn on Japanese myths and folklore to create an immersive and nuanced tale of terror. Solve the mysterious deaths with help from many of the original characters from the first game – Spirit Hunter: Death Mark. Choose who will accompany you from a designated selection of characters to help you solve the mystery and accompany you in all new 2D exploration gameplay.

When rumors circulate about supernatural occurrences at the famed Konoehara Academy in Tokyo’s H City, it’s up to the head of the Kujou family, also known as the “Spirit Doctor,” to take on the case. Notices that announce people’s deaths, and students who aren’t what they seem. Through your investigation, it appears that a spirit called “The Departed” is the mastermind behind it all, and it looks like it wants something from you...

This entry introduces a new side-scrolling function when traveling across different locations. Combined with the first-person perspective during investigations, the Spirit Hunter experience is more immersive and terrifying than ever. The partnering system has also been enhanced. The success rate of your actions during “Suspensive Acts” change depending on your partner of choice, further elevating the elements of suspense in this installment.

Be ready, for when a spirit does attack, crucial mistakes mean certain death.

An original soundtrack CD of 14 tracks is also available exclusively through the North American Aksys Online Store.

Spirit Hunter: Death Mark II will crawl out of the grave for PS5, Nintendo Switch and PC (Steam) on February 15, 2024.
